We had a volunteer tour guide for the day, "Dave" was his name. He made sure we got every where we needed to go. (that's him in the photo with me below)...He was a young Gonder University Student studying to be a tourism guide :) He wanted to practice on us. He took us to the local Mercato (market) which was mostly closed, but we still go to see a few things, and a I bought a traditional head covering scarf. We also bought a $10 mini basket, which now seems ridiculous that we payed that much for a tiny handmade basket. But...oh well. Rookie mistake!

I can't see any of your Gondar pics on this post.
I would love to see these pics but they are not showing up! I am dying to hear more about Gondar. I know you are so busy but when you have a chance can you tell me about it?
